A MUCH NEEDED WEEKEND AWAY!

In a few short hours I will be packing up the truck with enough food, clothing and scrapbook supplies to spend the entire weekend away from home.

A much needed little retreat where I'll get to spend grown up time with my friends Joni, Rebecca and Sue. Scrapping, eating, snacking and talking into the wee hours of the night.

A weekend where I will hopefully get caught up on my scrapbooking.......or at least make a dent in them.

From Friday at 3:00 till Sunday Noon I will be in a calm and peacefull place.......well, maybe not to peaceful if we get Rebecca laughing!

This will be the third time we have rented this cabin out at Scott County Park for the weekend. No Boys No Kids !! We each bring a meal to share, snacks and munchies are also required. We also each pack up our drivables to the gills with enough scrapbook supplies that you would think we are running away from home. We do sleep....some more then others.

Catching up on our scrapbooking is the "main" reason we get together like this twice a year......but if truth be told we could probably leave the scrap supplies at home and just spend the weekend telling stories, sitting by the fire and we would be prefectly happy. It is our weekend to not be mothers or wifes, our weekend to escape from the everyday hassles of life.
